Editor, Majestic Moving Companies
Daniel King
Daniel King runs Majestic Moving Companies and edits its moving guides. Majestic Moving Companies is a free online directory of moving companies across the United States — not a moving company.
The guides answer the questions people ask before a move: what it will cost, how long-distance moves work, which federal rules protect you, and how to check a mover before you book.
When a rule changes, the guides that mention it are corrected. In November 2026, every guide that still told readers to ask for an “order for service” — a form federal rules stopped requiring in 2022 — was rewritten to point to the bill of lading instead.
